Hi everyone!
I've been dabbling in some archery for the past month or so and I am really enjoying it! The club I go to focuses mostly on compounds for beginners, which is fine, but I have a bit of a soft spot for recurves and the more traditional side of archery. For this reason, and for financial ones, I've decided my first personal bow will most probably be a recurve, a Black Hunter Takedown (given the overall very positive experiences most people have with it and its price). I will keep shooting a bit with the compound as well and I know that as a beginner, the most important thing is to learn proper form.
For those who don't know anything about the Black Hunter, the main specs for the one I might buy are:
- 60" height / 30 lbs@28" / Max. draw length 31" / Bamboo core / Laminated wood and fibre glass limbs. (My own max. draw length is about 26.5", I'm a woman, about 5'6", or 170cm).
My question to anyone who knows of this bow and especially to those of you who shoot one yourself: what arrows do you normally use with it / would you recommend?
I've spoken to one guy who knows quite a bit about recurves and he recommended carbon arrows with 800 spine and about 100gr tips. The most popular (and most reasonably priced?) carbon arrows I've seen so far are:
- Skylon Archery "Frontier", 33" in length;
- Bearpaw "Pentathlon Bandit", up to 32.5" in length.
Open to suggestions / corrections / anything - just bear in mind I'm a noob, so please don't be too harsh if I've said anything stupid! It's all still very confusing and too many numbers to make sense of. If you need any other info, please let me know.
Thank you for reading and Happy New Year!
